"Henceforward" means "from now on", so why do you limit the order to the

lifetime of ISKCON? When ISKCON is no longer manifest on the earth, is it no

longer be possible to become a disciple of Srila Prabhupada?

Where did you read that? When did Srila Prabhupada say that _ISKCON_ is

limited to 10,000 years?
